The analytic mean field potential approach is applied to α-, β-, and γ-Si₃N₄. The analytic expressions for the Helmholtz free energy, internal energy, and equation of state were derived. The formalism for the case of the Morse potential is used in this work. Its six potential parameters are determined through fitting the compression experimental data of α-, β-, and γ-Si₃N₄. The calculated compression curves of α-, β-, and γ-Si₃N₄ are in good agreement with the available experimental data. This suggests that the analytic mean field potential approach is a very useful approach to study the thermodynamic properties of Si₃N₄. Furthermore, we predict the variation of the free energy and internal energy with the molar volume at several higher temperatures and calculate the temperature dependence of the molar volume, bulk modulus, thermal expansion coefficient and isochoric heat capacity at zero pressure.

Little was known about biological activities of compounds from the medicinal mushroom of the genus Pholiota. A lectin from the Pholiota adiposa has now been isolated and its properties tested. The isolation procedure included ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and CM-cellulose, and fast protein liquid chromatography-gel filtration (FPLC) on Superdex 75. The lectin was composed of two identical subunits, each with a molecular mass of 16 kDa. Its N-terminal amino-acid sequence showed little similarity to sequences of other Agaricales lectins. The hemagglutinating activity of the lectin was stable at temperatures up to 50°C, and in NaOH and HCl solutions with concentrations less than 25 mM. It was inhibited by inulin (12.5-200 mM), but enhanced by Cu2+ (6.25-25 mM), Fe2+ (12.5-25 mM), and Al3+ (6.25-25 mM) ions. The lectin showed antiproliferative activity toward hepatoma Hep G2 cells and breast cancer MCF7 cells with an IC50 of 2.1 µM and approximately 3.2 µM, respectively. It exhibited HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitory activity with an IC50 of 1.9 µM. When compared with P. aurivella lectin, the only Pholiota lectin published to date, P. adiposa lectin differs in chromatographic behavior, molecular mass, N-terminal sequence, and effect of cations on hemagglutinating activity. In the case of the lectin from P. aurivella, its antifungal, antiproliferative, and HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitory activities have not been determined.

Winter wheat cultivars Aquileja (AQ) and Xian Nong 4(XN) were previously reported to possess durable, quantitative resistance to stripe rust disease. In the present study, AQ, XN and a susceptible wheat cultivar were reciprocally crossed in all 6 combinations. Parents, F1, F2, F3, BCP1 and BCP2 were used to determine quantitative genetic parameters for infection type and disease severity. The results showed that fixable genetic components preponderated in the inheritance of the resistance in AQ and XN for both infection type and disease severity, while the dominant component could be detected in some cases. The resistance was conditioned by oligogenes. Heritability of the resistance ranged from 50 to 79% in most cases.

HPM Generation by Tri-Anode Coaxial Vircator

EN
A novel type of coaxial vircator with 3 anodes is proposed. The advantages on high power microwave generation is tested by particle-in-cell simulation and theoretical analysis model is set up as well. The tri-anode coaxial vircator behaves a very stable frequency in the pulse duration. In the tri-anode coaxial vircator, the injecting electron beam is well premodulated in the first anode cavity and forms an inerratic bunch-dispersion mechanism in the second anode cavity; the energy-loss electrons penetrate through the third anode and absorbed by the dumping cavity locates in the centre electrode, which helps keeping the bunch-dispersion cycle undisturbed. A 3.8 GHz tri-anode coaxial vircator is theoretically designed and optimized by particle-in-cell simulation, which gives beam-wave conversion efficiency of over 20% with a stable predominant frequency, in accordance with the particle-in-cell simulation and analytic model.
